When a commercial landlord requires a tenant to guarantee a build-out as a condition of the lease, a tenant improvements performance bond is the surety form of that promise. It’s a private, contractual requirement — not a state mandate. We write it at a flat 3% with one soft credit pull.
















A performance bond runs through underwriting, so there’s one extra step. Here’s the whole thing:
Your business details, the bond amount your lease requires, and the effective date — plus a one-time consent to a soft credit pull.
Performance bonds get a brief underwriting look at the obligation. The credit check is a soft pull that never affects your score — it informs approval, never price.
Pay online and receive the executed bond, ready to deliver to your landlord to satisfy the lease condition. Wet-ink originals mailed on request.
Bond amount × 3% = your premium, one-time, $275 minimum. Enter the figure your lease requires and the premium updates — a soft credit pull affects approval, never the price.
Commercial landlords often finance or rely on tenant improvements — the build-out that makes a leased space usable for the tenant’s business. When the landlord wants assurance the work gets done as agreed, it can require the tenant to post a performance bond as a condition of the lease.
This is a private, contractual bond — there is no Arizona statute that mandates it. The terms come from your lease: the obligation it guarantees, the amount, and the conditions for a claim. The bond protects the landlord against the tenant’s failure to complete the improvements, up to the bond amount.
The amount is whatever your lease names — typically tied to the cost of the improvements. We issue it at a flat 3% with one soft credit pull that never affects your score. Because a performance bond guarantees completion of work, underwriting reviews the obligation; credit can affect whether we approve the bond, never what it costs. If the surety pays the landlord, you repay the surety.
These are the actual underwriting fields, including a one-time consent to a soft credit pull. Submit once and your bond is typically issued within 1–2 business days.
